in the future - u will be able to do some more stuff here,,,!! like pat catgirl- i mean um yeah... for now u can only see others's posts :c
âTime is the most important factor.â
âGann fansâ keep parrotting this phrase, but do they actually know what Gann meant by it?
The concept of âtimeâ is something we take for granted, and we donât realise how it is affected by our education, our culture, our environment, and also our age we live in.
Gann was affected by the latest scientific concepts in his age, where they invented the concept of âspace-timeâ and started treating time as nothing else but an extra dimension of space. He makes several references to price-time where you can just transpose one over another. This is really self-explanatory and basic mathematics as you can just exchange the values of the price-time coordinates in calculations.
Thereâs no need to second-guess my post about this video. Simon Roper is a great mind, most of his content explores hard-core linguistic topics about the history of the English language.
From an entertainment point-of-view, I found his video about time fascinating. Time itself is an abstract concept, and he demonstrates this process of abstraction in his calm and educative manner.
He wonât expect you to agree on everything. For me, thereâs only one tiny error in his demonstration: when he talks about the cyclical concept of time, he almost identifies this with repetition. If you already know my channel, the best demonstration of the cyclical nature of time is to abstract it as a spiral. I explained this in 2D as concentric circles which can be viewed interconnected as a spiral. To make the demonstration 3D, one could think of these as âlayersâ.
The point is, one cannot talk about the cyclical nature of time in pure quantitative terms. Doing that, one will necessarily arrive at some idea of ârepetitionâ. However, repetition could only exist in the realm of pure quantity (which can never manifest itself as itâs only an abstract concept).
Two consecutive things can look similar, of course, but will differ in their existence. And cycles differ in qualitative terms: a smaller cycle will reflect the nature of its âparentâ cycle. But it wonât repeat it. To say that, one would still speak about the very same cycle.
Cycles are not just copy&paste âunitsâ. There is always a new âlayerâ or a new fold of the âspiral of timeâ. One cannot âcatch outâ cycles of time by talking about them in quantitative terms. Itâs futile as they are immeasurable.
Most importantly, time is only one aspect of cosmic cycles. Throughout history, ever since prehistory, cosmic cycles have always been represented by mythical figures: kings or lawgivers in most cases. Another symbol of cycles are mountains which emerge and disappear as new eons appear and old ones dissolve.

Iâm into long-format content these days.
Truth is, you can never really learn anything if you just keep scrolling through 1-minute videos.
I removed all my âshort formatâ content as it attracted the wrong audience. You wouldnât believe some of the idiotic comments I had to read there.
People these days donât take the time to digest what they watch, what they read. Most people have stopped reading anyway.
If you take the time to watch this video, I hope you will notice similaritieis to what I have mentioned to you on more than one occasion.
This man talks about medieval music versus neo-medieval music or so-called âbardcoreâ. Most listeners cannot make the distinction between the two, and I was one of them: bardcore looks medieval, sounds medieval â but it is not medieval.
I have tried to explain something very similar to you: some ideas might look ancient, they sound ancient â but they have nothing to do with how our ancient predecessors looked at the world.
And another very good point this man makes in this video: when you listen to authentic European medieval music, it will resemble Oriental music in your ears.
Why is that?
It is simply because the East conserved these ideas in music composition while the West has moved on.
I donât think I have to explain this discovery to you. When I look at my visitor statistics, most of my audience comes from India. It is for a very good reason: an Easterner can understand ancient ideas better than a Westerner â and Iâm saying this as a Westerner myself.
But let me warn you: some of the ideas around Gann, which you think are ancient ones, have nothing to do with how our ancient predecessors looked at the world. They look ancient, sound ancient â but they are not ancient.
Yes, this means that I will have the painful task of not just dismissing and debunking all the fake âGann expertsâ in the future, but I will also have to put The Man Himself under scrutiny.
How I will do that, or whether I am qualified for that task, is yet to decide.
For now, just take your time and enjoy this brilliant video, my friends.
(And be warned: thereâs a kitten in there as a clickbait.)

As you all know, I'm on a mission against clickbaits. But this video is actually a very good and short talk about a complex subject.
People crave for âmysteriesâ, secrets, conspirations, âarcane knowledgeâ... when in reality, the answer can be very simple.
We just have to change our perspective.
